Gia Wood

the girl behind the chair

Exquisite style and beauty flow from the fingertips of this stylist, whose unmatched abilities come second-nature. But what else would you expect from a woman who was practically raised at the salon she now calls home?

"When I was born, my mom's water literally broke in the salon," laughs Gia Wood, as she twirls a lock of her client's hair around a shiny gold curling iron. "The Salon is my home. It's who I am."

Daughter of Geneva Glover, the original owner of Du Nouveau Salon, Gia specializes in hair color and chemical corrections, and masters the art of glamour and beauty. But the impressive resume of this Toni and Guy Styling School grad does not stop with color. A styling innovator, she applies natural and undetectable Hairdreams hair extensions for clients who need volume or length. Gia can make even the kinkiest hair silky-straight with her thermal straightening technique, and she's sure to blow anyone away with her signature cuts and superior styling. When it comes to hair, Gia, who’s now a styling instructor herself, clearly has the Midas touch, according to her world wide client base!

Gia’s services are not limited to hair. Gia holds a professional photo-shoot twice a week, a unique service she provides for all of her clients. The shoot combines a professional make-up application, multiple wardrobe changes, and creative hair styling, “where everyone feels like a Hollywood movie star and receives the full 'red-carpet' treatment,” according to Gia.

"I was meant to be here and I love what I do," smiles Gia. "Yes, I'm still young, but talent is something you're born with."

"I have friends, not clients.  They just throw money at me in the end to keep it interesting!  I enjoy my work and how I go about it.  I am not the average stylist in some stuffy or snobby North Dallas salon, who is just after the money.  I like to work in a relaxed atmosphere where my clients and I can say anything.  I care about my clients like they are my family.  If they ask me a question or my opinion about something like their hair, I tell them flat out.  In my opinion, its much better to be severely honest with someone, than to promise something you will never be able to deliver."

No one can deny the superior talent Gia displays along with her remarkable skill and grace. A visit to Gia marks the beginning of a new you, where Gia guarantees you’ll “Love Your Style!”
